美国亚特兰大地质研究中心的科学家们正在研究利用丰富的海底冰山资源,开发一个经济、清洁的新能源库。科学家指出,可用怍能源的冰山位于海平面以下四百五十米左右的深度。这些冰山的孔隙之间储存有呈固体状态的甲烷,这是一种碳水化合物。地质学家们推测,这种海底冰山中碳的含量是所有其它矿物燃料含碳量总和的两倍。但是现在要开采这一宝藏还为时尚早。原因是这些海底冰山已存在了相当长的时间,一旦挖 Scientists at the Atlanta Geological Research Center are studying the use of abundant seafloor iceberg resources to develop an economical and clean new energy repository. Scientists point out that the icing energy available is located at a depth of about 450 meters below sea level. The pores of these icebergs store methane in solid form, which is a carbohydrate. Geologists speculate that this submarine iceberg contains about twice as much carbon as all other fossil fuels. But it is still too early to mine this treasure. The reason is that these submarine icebergs have existed for quite a long time, once dug
